What's your favorite Millie

I've had several versions of the Military, but the only one that I've kept is my Ti Military with a CPM-M4 blade. Upgraded T8 screws, standoffs, forced patina, rounded spine, and a beadblasted clip. I did the same conversion with an M390 but haven't used it at all. I was planning to do the same thing with a Cruwear but after someone tested it vs M4, there seemed to be no need.

For utility: M390/CF -- Great steel, grippy handle and light weight.

For aesthetics: Fluted Titanium.
 
Only really used a cruwear, so it's my favorite by default. Micarta scales don't hurt either:

^^That looks great! My favorite Millie is the only one I own, which is the black-bladed standard S30V G10 model. It's amazing how well the Military pockets for its size, and the blade shape/length combined with the ergonomics make it an absolute pleasure to use. My next Millie purchase will be the titanium framelock model.
 
I'd like to get a Ti model myself. But do not know where to find one at this point. I thought the Ti's were a sprint run.

Regular production, just hard to find. I've seen them in Stock a couple times.

I want a fluted ti but that's even harder and more $
 
I carry my S90v Bento Box since I received it. I'm not digging the blue though, it's too big of a knife for such a bright color IMO, perhaps I'll dye it black. I am hoping to score an M4 version one day. I hope they produce another run of it since I doubt I can afford how much they have been going for when one does become available.

There's a major internet retailer that has them in stock at a reasonable price. It's not clear whether or not they have the steel insert though.
 
My favorite is a FrankenMillie: the Ti/G10 chassis with an M390 blade. :thumbup:

OMG that burrito broke your Millies blade in half! :eek: Should have used a M4 blade :D

I'll always have a soft spot for the BG42 CF model, that's my pick.
 
I have Cpm D2 FG, Orange Cpm, Cpm Ti, BG42 CF and M4 and among these BG42 and CF is my choice, but if I had a M390 CF version... maybe... ;)
 
I have these ones,
